Brain Healthy Ingredients

Recent research has shown that the antioxidants in tart cherries may help stave off the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease. This recipe also uses kale, a hearty winter green that is a true superfood, as well as brain-boosting almonds and olive oil.

Preparation

Put walnuts in a small saute pan and toast over medium low heat, about 5 minutes, until just starting to smell fragrant. Pour into bowl to cool.

Prepare the kale by running your thumb and forefinger from the bottom of the stalk to the top to separate the leaves from the stalks. Discard stalks. Rinse leaves well and dry with towels. Roll leaves tightly and slice thinly to create ribbons.
